Chapter Seventy-Six: The Exquisite Jade Plaque
The nineteen states of the Han Dynasty, of which Zhongzhou is the imperial capital, is the place where the world's heroes gather, and there are countless masters and fierce people, and it is well-deserved in the world.
And next to Zhongzhou is Mizhou.
Mizhou is an important place on land and water, the largest canal of the Han Dynasty, the Daxing River, passes through Mizhou, every day there are a large number of merchant ships from all over the country to bring together the materials and specialties of the country, and then from Mizhou to all parts of Zhongzhou, but most of the materials have been sent to Kyoto, so this Mizhou can be described as the throat of the Beijing Division, the important place of soldiers, and the strategic location is extremely important.
The land and water distribution place is naturally prosperous. Merchants from all over the country gathered, and Qinglou wine shops bloomed all over the banks of the canal. In the drizzle, the wine flags on both sides of the Daxing River stand obliquely, and the boats on the river are lined up one by one, and the merchant ships, official ships, and private boats crowd the river to the point where there is no place to intervene.
Yang Yi looked out of the window in a restaurant, and was very interested in the prosperous scene in front of him, he was once the emperor, and now he has to pay more attention to some things about the national economy and people's livelihood.
He just arrived in Michigan today.
Three days ago, after Yang Shenxing handed three letters to Yang Yi, he sent Yang Yi out the next day.
Qin Shuang heard that Yang Yi was going out alone, so he sent a letter for his father, and clamored to come out with Yang Yi, but was suppressed by Yang Shenxing.
Yang Yi This is the first time to go out of Beijing, he has always heard others say about people and things outside Kyoto, but he has never gone out to see, this time the old father asked him to go out to deliver the letter, Yang Yi actually understood that sending the letter is just a reason, and taking the opportunity to hone him is the real purpose of Yang Shenxing.
Yang Yi readily accepted it, he had long been extremely curious about the world, and now that he has this opportunity, of course he will not miss it.
Yang Shenxing's first letter to him was to be sent to the Southern Wilderness Yunzhou to clear the mountain demon cloud top and the old man of the Great Wilderness Yun Zaitian.
Yun Zaitian sits in the Southern Wilderness, intimidating hundreds of millions of natives in the mountains and mountains, and is a god-like existence in the eyes of the natives of the Southern Wilderness. This person is one of the top ten grandmasters. The martial arts cultivation is very high, so naturally there is no need to say more.
It is said that this person's practice is very different from the rest of the people, Yang Yi was very curious to ask Yang Shenxing what is the difference, Yang Shenxing smiled at Yang Yi at that time: "You will know when you go to the Southern Wilderness." ”
Yang Yi became more and more curious.
After leaving home, Yang Yi's first stop was Mizhou, which is more than 800 miles away from Kyoto. The yellow horse is fast, and it takes one day to get here. I found an inn to stay, and when I got up this morning, I saw that it was raining outside, and the smoke and rain were hazy, and there was a different scene.
The front yard of the inn is a restaurant, and the backyard is the guest room. Eat at the restaurant.
At this time, it was noon, the drizzle could not stop the visitors from all directions, the business of this restaurant was extremely hot, Yang Yi just looked at the window for a while, and when he turned his head, the whole restaurant was already full of drinkers.
The food in this restaurant is quite distinctive, although it is not delicate but it is better than the freshness, but the wine is a little poor. It is spicy and coarse, and it is difficult to swallow. Fortunately, Yang Yi carried a silver bottle with him. There is wine in the silver bottle at all times. Throwing the store's wine aside, Yang Yi opened the silver bottle and poured a full glass into the coarse porcelain wine cup, this wine is a treasure of Ouchi, the color is ****, thick as paste. Raise the glass along the line and do not flow out.
At this time, a breeze blew by the window, and the aroma of wine overflowed in an instant, and the whole restaurant was full of sweet wine, which attracted a lot of discussion among the drinkers on the whole floor.
Yang Yi drank a few glasses of wine. With a pride in his chest, he knocked on the table with chopsticks and sang loudly, enjoying himself. Just as he was feasting and drinking wine, it was dark in front of him, and a young man walked up to Yang Yi and arched his hand: "This brother, can you stay at this table for a while?"
Yang Yi smiled and said: "Please please, there are brothers in the four seas, just sit down." ”
The young man grinned, and two small dimples appeared on his pink cheeks, "Thank you brother for saving face, junior brother Gu Caiyu, don't you dare to ask my brother Taigao's name?"
Yang Yi waved his hand and said: "Why do you have to know each other when you meet, why do you have to ask the bottom of it so much?"
"Why do you have to know each other when you meet?"
Gu Caiyu's eyes lit up, and he praised: "Good sentence! I am waiting for people in the rivers and lakes, coming and going in a hurry, it is indeed a meeting, why should we have known each other!" He took out an amber jade cup from his arms and said to Yang Yi: "It is for this sentence, the younger brother also has to respect the elder brother with a cup!"
Yang Yi saw that he raised his silver bottle by himself, first poured himself a full glass, then poured a full glass into his hand, raised the wine glass and said, "Little brother do it first for respect!"
Yang Yi couldn't help laughing when he saw him salivating, as if he didn't raise his glass again, his saliva was about to drip out. He raised the coarse porcelain wine cup and touched the jade cup in his hand, and said, "Please!"
Gu Caiyu drank all the wine in the cup, and his white jade-like face quickly turned crimson, and praised: "Good wine! I have drunk a lot of fine wine in the world, but I have never tasted such fine wine as Brother Tai!"
Yang Yi said: "Since it is good wine, then drink more!"
Gu Caiyu smiled and said, "Then the little brother is welcome!" stood up and said to the guy in the restaurant next to him: "Xiao Er, bring you all your best dishes!" said and threw out a piece of broken silver, "This is the master's reward, well done, the master will have a heavy reward!"
The shopkeeper took the broken silver and ran to the back kitchen to order food.
Sure enough, it was rich and easy to do, and it didn't take long for the shopkeeper to put a few big dishes in front of Yang Yi.
Gu Caiyu lifted the chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of fish into Yang Yi's bowl, and said with a smile: "This white jade saury is a must in Mizhou, and you can't eat such authentic things in idle places, although Zhongzhou is good, you may not be able to eat it so fresh." ”
Yang Yi saw that his hands were slender, his palms were white and soft, his nails were as smooth as jade, and when his arms were approaching, he had a faint body fragrance. I saw that his eyebrows were like green feathers, his eyes were full of autumn water, and his ears were crystal clear, and he was really a man and a woman.
It's just that although there are many women in the rivers and lakes, there are not many people like her.
Yang Yi was very interesting, and he didn't break it, he pushed the cup with her and changed the lamp, and he drank happily. After eating and drinking, the three catties of wine in Yang Yiyin were gone.
Gu Caiyu was flushed, his tongue was big, he slapped a silver ingot on the wine table, and said to Yang Yi: "The little brother is not strong enough to drink, you have to rest in the backyard for a while, less accompaniment, less accompaniment!"
Just after Gu Caiyu's hands touched Yang Yi's sleeves, Yang Yi clearly saw that her right hand shook, and a jade plate had slipped from the sleeve to her hand, and it was instantly stuffed into her own bag next to the wine table.
"Oh, let my brother Taijian laugh! Drunk faux pas, laugh when you see a smile!" Gu Caiyu bowed down and staggered towards the bottom of the restaurant, before he could take a few steps, his body suddenly stopped, and a dark voice sounded in front of him, "Stinky girl, I see where you can run this time!"
Yang Yi followed the prestige, and saw a young man in a white robe standing in front of Gu Caiyu, folding a fan in his hand, and couldn't stop fanning. This person is not good-looking, evil and handsome, tall and thin, and graceful. At this time, the eyes that looked at Gu Caiyu were full of cruelty and viciousness.
"Ahh
Gu Caiyu's face was full of joy, and he said crisply: "I don't know what Brother Yin is looking for me?"
Yin Desperate stretched out a hand and said coldly: "Bring it!"
Gu Caiyu had an inexplicable look on her face, "What to bring?" The little brother really doesn't understand what Yin Gongzi means. As soon as he said that, he was about to rush downstairs, but then his body trembled, and he began to retreat slowly, and a white-haired old woman walked up from the downstairs.
The old woman held a black rattan cane, kept moving on the stairs of the restaurant, and in the sound of "Bangbangbang", the old woman walked to the top of the restaurant with a cough step by step, looked at Gu Caiyu with a pair of old eyes, and said softly: "Yu'er, why are you so troubled? Brother Gu died young, and only you were the only daughter in the family, why did you hold on to that thing? If you lose your life because of this, how can the old woman bear it? You should just hand it over." ”
When Yin Desperate Feelings appeared, Gu Caiyu was still calm, but after this old woman appeared, Gu Caiyu's drunken intention immediately disappeared, and her lacquer-like eyes turned around a few times, and said to the old woman: "Ah, Grandma Ye, you came just in time, please make decisions for the younger generations for the sake of your father!"
She pointed at Yin with her hand, "When my father was dying, he ordered me to hand over the Linglong jade plate to you, the Cloud Master and the Half-Moon Dao Master, but this person attacked the mourning hall at night after the death of his father, wanting to swallow this exquisite jade card alone, intending to secretly obtain the treasure left by the martial saint Jin Xuangan, so as to dominate the martial arts and dominate the southeast!"
Her last sentence was a little louder, and the people who were watching the restaurant could hear it clearly, and they were all stunned when they heard it, and then they made a big uproar.
More than a thousand years ago, the martial saint Jin Xuangan swept through the Eight Desolations and Liuhe with a long knife, and there was almost no one under his command, except for a limited number of sect bosses, no one was his opponent. Later, it was rumored that this person died with the Blood Ancestor of the Northern Demon City, and there has been no news since then.
I didn't expect that there would be his treasure on the market now, two-thirds of the people in the restaurant are men who walk the rivers and lakes, and few people who are not moved to hear this matter at this time have pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Grandma Ye will be suspicious, she and Gu Caiyu's father had such a romantic past in the early years, when his father was dying, it may not be impossible to entrust the exquisite jade plate to himself for safekeeping, besides, Gu Caiyu also said the names of the Half Moon Daoist and the Cloud Master, not the older generation of people in the rivers and lakes, who can know the names of the Half Moon and Wuyun? Who knows that he and the three of them are the same brothers and sisters?
Under the suspicion, even the noise of the surrounding drinkers was ignored, coughed a few times, and looked coldly at Yin Desperate, "Is there such a thing?" (To be continued.) )
